If you have an earthly dream, you have to know whether or not it is doable. If you have determined that it is doable, you must then plot the steps necessary to achieve that goal. This takes research and study. It takes putting yourself in the right place at the right time. For most of us, the pursuit of dreams is not possible. Many of us gave up on our dreams to pursue a career and family. If the chosen career is the dream, then success has been achieved and that person can go to their grave happy. However, this is not the reality most of us know. In fact, society and friends, even family, will try to discourage the one who pursues his dream. They will stand alongside the road when he comes running by and they will throw fruit at him from both sides. They will criticize, laugh, and mock the dreamer. Well, I believe in the dreamer. I believe in the underdog. If someone has the balls to really go out there and make it happen, then I will encourage them the entire way through. I am reminded by Carl Sagan's pale blue dot. Anybody who watches that short clip will have a better understanding of where we truly are in the cosmos and how insignificant and temporary we all are. It is from that perspective one should begin their journey. Having a dream is wonderful. Just make sure it can be done and then roll the dice and make it happen.
